My name is Ifueko (pronounced eef-wecko), which means ‘cool, calm, and collected.’ As a stress management coach, my passion for helping others reduce stress and achieve optimal health is deeply personal—shaped by my own successful and accelerated recoveries from two rare, aggressive cancers diagnosed seven years apart.
The diagnoses came at pivotal moments in my career. I had successfully transitioned from Electrical Engineering to Marketing and Communications, earned an MBA, and was on the cusp of a senior management role when cancer reared its ugly head.
After my first recovery, I committed to consistently practicing key lifestyle habits —including stress reduction, which is a major factor in 75–90% of chronic diseases. That consistency paid off: when I faced the second diagnosis, my mind and body were in such a healthy state that I moved through it with strength and ease.
With the lemons life handed me, I chose to make lemon macaroons with coconut buttercream—and turned my challenges into purpose. That journey led me to become a Certified Integrative Wellness Coach, trained at Duke Integrative Medicine and an accredited member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF). I’m also a speaker and the proud author of Zoë Integrative Wellness.

What are my clients saying?
I had the privilege of working with Ifueko regarding my nutritional needs. She provided me with the tools to create effective, long-term goals that suited my lifestyle. With starting a new career and moving at the same time, my main goal was to limit my eating out with a focus on smart grocery shopping, planning meals, and limiting excess food waste. With Ifueko’s help, I was able to prioritize my nutrition, despite all the stress I was going through, and sustain eating healthier, homemade meals. Ifueko is a caring and compassionate health coach, and I would love to work with her again in the future.

I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Ifueko. She has an inviting and friendly spirit about her that made me comfortable to share easily. The vision casting session(s) that she guided me through resulted in a clear and detailed picture of what I want my health to look like. And, these pictures in my mind now serve as my motivation to maintain habits that move me closer to that vision. Ifueko taught me that I have the power to leverage what works for me and the power to change or even let go of what does not work.

Working with Ifueko has turned out to be a delightful surprise for me. I wanted to improve my physical environment by major de-cluttering as it was affecting my health and attitude towards life. Ifueko worked with me to set goals and kindly but forthrightly kept my “feet to the fire”. A cloud has lifted off me! What a wonderful feeling of success and accomplishment. It makes me feel I can tackle the next “whatever” successfully. Ifueko is an enjoyable person, easy to relate to, and has made this experience into a happy adventure.

Ifueko came into my life at the time my 40-year career had abruptly ended. I felt like a blank slate, could not envision a new season, and intentionally started to grieve. During the three months of coaching, I began to dream again. With baby steps, I improved my mental health by exercising regularly and started building two small businesses. Ifueko asked me questions that helped me see my life through a different lens, which enabled me to set goals that have resulted in behavior change. The mountain that I saw three months ago has now become an exciting challenge.

My coaching experience was very insightful and rewarding. Ifueko was timely, professional, and resourceful. Her coaching techniques helped to improve my reflective and analytical skills with regard to assessing and improving my health. In addition, she helped me to see things from a different perspective and I have now developed some new healthy habits.
Titi F. – Calgary, AB
I struggled with using sheer willpower to sustain the health changes I needed. Ifueko coached me for 6 months using the Zoe Integrative Wellness approach, which made me more intentional in my walk with God. Taking baby steps, I became healthier through improved exercise, nutrition, and work-life balance. I am amazed at how I was empowered, the impact of 6 months of coaching on my life, and my ability to apply the principles I learned for future goals. Ifueko is dependable and professional, and she has a wealth of resources to support her clients.
